There are two channels in a person for receiving information. The written Torah is an awakening from above, and the oral Torah is awakening from below.

Both channels instruct a person on what to do in order to advance.

Gradually by studying this even without specifying which part it is, written or oral, we are still moving forward.

The written Torah is what we read in the sources, and the oral Torah is what our sages transmitted to us orally. They conveyed the information, but prohibited writing it down.

Question: Do we understand correctly that the written Torah is perceived by the mind, and the oral Torah by the heart?

Answer: In some ways, you are correct. But in both of them, there are both feeling and mind.

Question: Which Torah do we engrave in the heart to serve as a key for adhesion with the Creator?

Answer: The written one.
